Aethus is a crafty new sci-fi survival game in which one woman and her flying drone pal excavate a layered underground world on behalf of a galactic megacorp. You’ll create a surface base from holographic modules, gather evidence about a doomed science expedition, research a wacky new element, and unearth the dirty secrets of your employer. It sounds a lot like Coffee Stain’s Satisfactory, with opportunities for automation later on, but it’s viewed from an elevated third-person perspective, and appears more narrative-driven. Satisfactory through the eyes of Diablo? I can – as we space miners like to say…

What’s the best way to farm Amrita in Nioh 3? To farm or not to farm? That is the question. In Nioh 3, you’ll naturally find yourself accruing plenty of Amrita as you progress, ensuring you stay on, or even ahead, of the level curve. But if you’re finding Team Ninja’s latest a tough slog or simply have a lust for power, it’s incredibly easy to scoop up more XP if you take the time out of your day. Some of Nioh 3’s big boss encounters can be particularly prickly customers, and you may have reached the point where you no…

Some remakes are a product of passion and respect for the source material being adapted. A few bells and whistles shed to streamline, but the heart of the original experience is maintained in a genuine, adoring attempt to revitalise and rebirth. Others are Yakuza Kiwami 3: Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio demonstrates little but condescension for Yakuza 3, the game it purports to be remaking.The story remains similar: orphanage owner Kazuma Kiryu is dragged into an Okinawan political conspiracy that rips apart yakuza families and found families. There aren’t many alterations to one of the series’ most touching (if not entirely…

Is Ser Dunk the Tall really a knight? Fans don’t seem to think so, but they also don’t mind either way.Warning: there are spoilers for A Knight of Seven Kingdoms episode 4 below, as well as book spoilers.In A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Dunk hesitates when it comes time to knight Raymun. Lyonel Baratheon takes over, and we see Dunk imagine himself kneeling before Ser Arlan of Pennytree… who just shrugs. This key scene, in addition to a specific paragraph from the Tales of Dunk and Egg novellas, sort of makes it seem like Dunk isn’t a knight at…

Nioh 3 “is less punishing” than Nioh 1 and Nioh 2, according to our reviewer Jeremy Blum. In a fine example of the Duality of Man, this observation forms part of a sentence in which Jeremy also confesses to smashing a hole in his desk with his controller. I can only imagine the destruction if he’d run into one particular “very rare” Nioh 3 bug, recently patched out, which causes the game to corrupt your save data if you end the game while praying at shrines.

It’s traditional to wheel out chocolates for your beau or squeeze into jam-packed restaurants to get a romantic meal, but I prefer settling down with cozy board games on Valentine’s Day. A cheese and charcuterie board to one side, a glass of red on the other, and an evening rolling dice? I’d swoon.If you want to do things a little differently this year, there are plenty of board games I’d recommend for Valentine’s Day. However, there are three in particular that I’ll be breaking out for my wife and I. Besides being some of the best board games for couples…
